THE NAME OF WASHINGTON. 

Sons of the youth and the truth of the nation, — 

Ye that are met to remember the man 
Whose valor gave birth to a people's salvation, — 
Honor him now ; set his name in the van. 
A nobleness to try for, 
A name to live and die for — 
The name of Washington ! 

Calmly his face shall look down through the ages — 

Sweet yet severe with a spirit of warning ; 
Charged with the wisdom of saints and of sages ; 
Quick with the light of a life-giving morning. 
A majesty to try for, 
A name to live and die for — 
The name of Washington ! 

Though faction may rack us, or party divide us, 

And bitterness break the gold links of our story. 
Our father and leader is ever beside us. 

Live and forgive ! But forget not the glory 
Of him whose height we try for ; 
A name to live and die for — 
The name of Washington ! 

Still in his eyes shall be mirrored our fleeting 
Days, with the image of days long ended ; 
Still shall those eyes give, immortally, greeting 
Unto the souls from his spirit descended. 
His grandeur we will try for ; 
His name we '11 live and die for — 
The name of Washington! 

Geo. Parsons Lathrop. 



PRBQmBbB. 




. _ HEREAS, it has become evident from the 
decline of proper celebration of such 
National holidays as the Fourth of July, 
Washington's Birthday, and the like, that 
popular interest in the events and men of 
the War of the Revolution is less than in 
the earlier days of the Republic ; 
And, whekeas, this lack of interest is to be attributed, not 
so much to lapse of time and to the great flood of immigra- 
tion from foreign countries, as to the neglect on the part of 
descendants of Revolutionary heroes to perform their duty of 
keeping before the public mind the memory of the services 
of their ancestors, and of the times in which they lived, and 
of the principles for which they contended ; 

Thekefoee, the Institution of the " Sons of the Revolu- 
tion " has been formed and established in the United States 
of America, to perpetuate the memory of the men who, in 
military, naval or civil service, by their acts or counsel, 
achieved American Independence ; to promote and assist in 
the proper celebration of the anniversaries of Washington's 
Birthday, the Battles of Lexington and Bunker Hill, the 
Fourth of July, the Capitulations of Saratoga and Yorktown, 
\\\e formal Evacuation of New York by the British Army, 
on the 3d of December, 1783, as a relinquishment of terri- 
torial sovereignty, and other prominent events relating to or 
connected with the War of the Revolution ; to collect and 
secure for preservation the manuscript rolls, records and other 
documents and memorials relating to that War ; to inspire 
among the members and their descendants the patriotic spirit 
of their forefathers ; to inculcate in the community in general 
sentiments of Nationality and respect for the principles for 
which the patriots of the Revolution contended ; to assist in 
the commemorative celebration of other great historical 
events of National importance, and to promote social inter- 
course and the feeling of fellowship among its members. 




g0R8^l®y^l0R. 



AKTICLE I. 



The Institution shall be known by the name, style and title 
of " Sons of the Eevolution." 



ARTICLE II. 

The Institution shall be National and perpetual, and shall 
include all members wherever admitted. 



ARTICLE III. 

The purposes of the Institution are to cherish and encour- 
age among its members and their descendants, and among the 
people of the United States, the patriotic spirit of the men, 
who, in military, naval or civil service, by their acts or coun - 
sel, achieved American Independe nee ; to perpetuate the 
memory of their deeds, and to maintain the immutable 
principles for which they contended ; to promote and assist 
in the proper commemorative celebration of Washington's 
Birthday, and of prominent events relating to or connected 
with the "War of the Revolution, and other great historical 
events of National importance ; to collect and secure for 
preservation the manuscript rolls, records and other documents 
and memorials relating to the War of the Revolution, and to 
promote social intercourse and the feeling of fellowship 
among its members. 



ARTICLE lY. 

Any male person, above the age of twenty-one years, shall 
be eligible to membership in the " Sons of the Revolution " 
who is descended from an ancestor who, either as a military 
or naval officer, soldier, sailor or official in the service of any 
one of the thirteen original Colonies or States, or of the 
National Government representing or composed of those 
Colonies or States, assisted in establishing American Inde- 
pendence during the War of the Revolution, between the 
19th day of April, 1Y75, when hostilities commenced, and 
the 19th day of April, 1783, when they were ordered to 
cease ; and no person other than such shall be eligible to 
membership in the " Sons of the Revolution ; " 

Provided : That when the claim of eligibility is based on 
the service of an ancestor in the " militia," it must be satis- 
factorily shown that such ancestor was actually called into the 
service of the State or United States, and performed garrison 
or field duty ; and 

Provided further : That when such claim is based on the 
service of an ancestor as a " sailor," it must in like manner 
be shown that such service was regularly performed in the 
Continental Kavy, or the Navy of one of the original thir- 
teen States, or on a vessel, other than a merchant ship, which 
sailed under letters of marque and reprisal, and that such 
ancestor of the applicant was duly enrolled in the ship's com- 
pany, either as an officer, seaman, or otherwise as a passenger ; 
and 

Provided^ further : That when such claim is based on the 
service of an ancestor as an official in the civil service of the 
United States, or of one of the thirteen original States, such 
service must have been sufficiently important in character to 
have rendered the official specially liable to arrest and impris- 
onment if captured by the enemy, and not the ordinary duties 
of a civil office, the performance of which did not particularly 
and effectively aid the American Cause. 

In the construction of this article, the civil officials and 



10 

military forces of tlie State of Vermont, during the War of 
the Revolution, shall be comprehended in the same manner 
as if they had belonged to one of the thirteen original States. 
No service of an ancestor shall be deemed as qualifying 
service for membership in the " Sons of the Revolution " 
where such ancestor, after assisting in the cause of American 
Independence, shall have subsequently either adhered to the 
enemy, or failed to maintain an honorable record throughout 
the War of the Revolution, and no person shall be admitted 
unless he be judged worthy of becoming a member. 

ARTICLE V. 

The Society having been instituted for National purposes, 
and incorporated for convenience under the laws of the State 
of New York as the " Sons of the Revolution," may never- 
theless, for the sake of frecjuent communications, be supple- 
mented, in the several States and Territories, by Societies 
co-ordinate and co-equal thereto, through which membership 
may be acquired and the purposes of the Institution in gen- 
eral more fully and more effectively promoted ; and each of 
such State Societies, when duly constituted, shall thereafter 
have exclusive jurisdiction in the particular State or Territory 
in which it may be organized. 

ARTICLE VL 

Whenever fourteen or more persons eligible for member- 
ship, all residing in any one State or Territory of the United 
States, shall apply to the Society to be authorized to organize 
a State Society in such State or Territory, or having associated 
and combined themselves into a provisional organization in 
such State or Territory, shall apply for recognition and ac- 
ceptance as such State Society, the Society may, at a stated 
or special meeting, by a vote of three-fourths of the members 
present, grant such application: Provided^ however, that 
only one State Society shall be authorized or accepted and 
thereupon duh^ constituted in any State or Territory. 



11 

ARTICLE VII. 

Every State Society, when duly constituted, will regulate 
everything respecting itself consistent with the purposes and 
maxims of the " Sons of the He volution."

nated by the By-Laws of each respectively ; subject, however, 
to such limitations and requirements as to the number and com- 
position of the Board as may be prescribed by any Statute 
applicable to the particular Organization. 

For common record purposes and for the convenience of 
the several jurisdictions, the Society shall also have an officer 
known as Registar, who shall receive, file and keep of record 
in the City of New York, the names and residences of all 
officers and members, proofs upon which memberships have 
been granted, declarations of members on admission of adher- 
ence to the Constitution, circular letters, and the By-Laws and 
Standing Regulations adopted in any meeting, and also copies 
of all publications issued by any Organization, and the pro- 
ceedings of all Councils, together with a list of all diplomas 
countersigned by him, which records shall always be open to 
the inspection of any member. 

ARTICLE IX. 

Every Organization of the " Sons of the Revolution," 
respectively, may adopt By-Laws and Standing Rules and 



12 

Regulations not inconsistent with this Constitution, or any 
Statute applicable thereto, and provide in the same for the 
imposition of dues, fees and penalties, and for the expulsion 
of any member enrolled therein who, by a conduct inconsist- 
ent with a gentleman and a man of honor, or by an opposition 
to the interests of the community in general or the Organiza- 
tion in particular wherein he is enrolled, or for other cause, 
may render himself unworthy to continue a member. 

The By-Laws, however, may provide for the restoration to 
membership of any person thus expelled, unless the cause of 
expulsion involved turpitude or moral unworthiness. 

No person thus expelled shall subsequently be admitted to 
membership in any other Organization of the " Sons of the 
Revolution " without the consent first had and obtained of 
the Organization from which he was expelled ; and no such 
consent shall be valid where the person thus expelled cannot, 
by reason of the cause of expulsion, be restored to member- 
ship in the Organization from which he was expelled. 



ARTICLE X. 

Every Organization of the '' Sons of the Revolution," 
respectively, shall judge of the qualifications of the members 
who may be proposed : Provided, however, that where a State 
Society is duly constituted in a State wherein the applicant 
permanently resides, he can acquire membership only in that 
jurisdiction, unless, however, he be a descendant of a member 
or former member enrolled in another jurisdiction, in which 
case he may apply to and be admitted in either one or the 
other. 

ARTICLE XL 

Every Organization of the " Sons of the Revolution " shall 
write annually, or oftener if necessary, a circular letter to the 
other meetings, noting whatever they may think worthy of

the year then closing, with carefully prepared biographies of 
the deceased members.

gers, may, at any time after thirty days' notice to such person

excuse, wilfully neglect the performance of any obligation 
enjoined by the Constitution, or by these By-Laws, or by any 
Standing Regulation of this Society. Provided, that he shall 
have received at least ten days' notice of the complaint pre- 
ferred against him, and of the time and place for hearing the 
same, and have been thereby afforded an opportunity to be 
heard in person or by counsel.

turpitude nor moral unworthiness, any member thus expelled 
may, upon the recommendation of the Board of Managers, 
but not otherwise, be restored to m^embership by the Society 
at any meeting.

by the Board of Managers, when there shall be a Vice-Presi- 
dent to enter upon its duties.

cies among its members, under the same conditions and limit- 
ations, and in case any member thereof, other than an officer, 
shall be absent from three consecutive meetings of the same, 
his place therein may be declared vacant by the Board of 
Managers and filled by an appointment which shall continue 
in full effect until the Society shall elect a successor.
